How can I get rid of my husband's cat and make it look like an accident?

Question

We have 4 cats and I am starting to suffer from allergies that require medication and I need to cut down on the cat population in the house. I want his favorite cat to go first. But if something happens to his cat he'll accuse me first. Suggestions??

OMG! The Hate!

I realize it's cruel if I did something that's why I'm begging for help on what are my options. I'm at my wits end with this particular cat.

I failed to mention that the cat is also annoying. He whines non stop unlike the others. He only wants to eat, sleep and sh**. That's why I chose that one.

Thanks to all for feedback

Answer 1

I have a suggestion. It's called "Allerpet", ask a Vet office about it. It is a treatment that you rub on the cat's fur which reduces the dander (yes, the word id dander, not dandruff) from the fur. This will help b/c the dander makes your allergies react. My friend is allergic to cats but her husband has them & she is fine as long as they use this product. I won't say you're a mean person, but you may want to consider how you would feel if your husband got rid of something you loved without telling you & then covered it up. That's pretty harsh. Not to mention animals are living creatures & it has been my experience that people who are mean to animals are mean to people also. Hope that's not the case with you. In CA, you can be fined & sentenced to jail for abandoning an animal. Maybe you could at least try to find it a home if you won't/can't compromise with your hubby.

You're a selfish *****... I have allergies and cats are the second thing on my list that I'm allergic to. We have 4 long haired cats... because I love my spouse and because I love the cats, I suffered through the natural immunity stage so we could keep the cats. You will develop an immunity to them... it's the same as having allergy shots.

Secretly giving away or killing a cat because YOU don't want them is one of the most selfish things you could do. All you're doing is thinking about yourself... what about your husband? More importantly, what about the poor cat!!!! My aunte ran a shelter for abandoned pets and I saw, first hand, how cruel and inhumane some people could be. I'd like to see stiffer laws and penalties come into play for people like you (if you do it). You have no idea how much suffering and stress you put an animal through when you drop it off or try to kill it.... it's disgusting. If there's a hell, I hope that's where you end up and even hell would be too good a place for somebody like you!!!

Just straight up tell your husband that you are having a problem with having all those cats. Here is a suggestion: find a close friend who would be willing to take the cats. That way you both win. He can visit his cats whenever he likes. And you won't have to suffer with allergies. Hope that Helps!

That is just about the sickest most selfish thing I have ever heard anyone say....You are willing to hurt your husbands feeling for your own sake and also hurt the cat. I suffer from allergies and allergy induced asthma, and I have 4 cats, I am not weak of selfish enough to put them out of my home for the sake of a condition I can easily overcome....Alergies are only your body over-reacting to harmless protiens in the dander created by the cats saliva when cleaning itself, getting rid of the cat will not make your allergies lessen or go away, the only way to overcome allergies is to train your body to accept the dander as harmless, this is easily accomplished by submersing yourself in the allergen (while taking antihistamines) until your body's defense system becomes accustomed to the allergen and no longer percieves it as a threat to your health. In the end you will no longer be allergic to that specific cat and your body will no longer react. I suggest you do this because otherwise you are just a wimp who is willing to hurt two other living beings in order to avoid overcoming a relatively easy obstacle....So step up to the plate and stop thinking about only yourself!!

Ps Just remember if you do this...what goes around comes around, its called Karma. Also just wanted to add, if I were him I would divorce you for doing something so self serving and cruel.

I can imagine few things worse than a spouse doing away with a pet without the permission of his or her mate. Talk to your husband! If he refuses to give up his pet(s) to ease your discomfort, perhaps you ought to think about cutting down the husband population in your house!

The fact that you want his favourite cat to go first sounds like this is about more than your allergies. You might want to address those concerns when you talk to him as well. Perhaps you can strike a bargain with him to establish no-cat zones around the house, or he can choose which cats to give away.

In the end, the cats are his and it is up to him to decide whether to get rid of them, and if so, which ones to get rid of. Based on his decisions, you can then make your own in order to make yourself more comfortable - even if that means changing bedrooms or lobbying for hardwood floors instead of carpet (which is awful for allergies).

If you do decide to "get rid of" any of your cats, try to find a good home using your local paper. Your local Humane Society is the next best bet, but keep in mind that local shelters are usually overrun with cats, especially during the spring and summer, and they will run a high risk of being euthenized.

Answer 7

Dont get rid of his favorite one first. That would be a big mistake. If you do that he probally would blame you and he would be depressed about it until one of the other cats could win his heart. The first thing you do is get rid of one of the other ones. Bring it to an animal shelter. Not one in your town he may go there looking for it. Wait a few months and repeat until all cats are gone. I would bring all the cats to different shelters to.


One more thing, If your just trying to reduce the population why not just get rid of 3 and let him keep his favorite?

Answer 8

Ummm instead of going all mob boss on his cat maybe you should talk to your husband. If you are suffering from allergies because of the cats then he should understand that you guys need to cut back. Assure him that you find loving homes for them and actually do! That way you dont have to lie to your husband or plot the cats demise(sp?)....

Answer 9

Take them to the animal shelter! I think its really cruel that your doing this though you need to talk to him first but if u must then definantly to the shelter! Then dont do anything, if he starts to notice that its not around and he accuses you deny it all. And act like u have no idea, act completley normal. Eventually suggest that it may have gotten out and ran away or been killed. I hope this helps but again TALK with him u do have other options!

Answer 10

don't do it please if u really love ur husband why would u want to take way something that means a lot to him. how would u feel? i think it's cruel what u are asking..please don't do it. i can't believe that if u loved him u would want to hurt him for ur own good, SELFISH! instead talk to him about it, tell him that maybe he can have only 1 or 2 cats. tell him that if he loves u he'll do it, please don't do such a mean thing. if ur husband were to find out he'll hate u, can u handle that? besides can't u just take the medication? what's wrong with that>?
